Everton defensive duo Michael Keane and Phil Jagielka look set to miss the Toffees next two games against Apollon Limassol in the Europa League and Burnley this Sunday, according to The Times.
Keane looks set to miss out on playing against his former employers on Sunday with a foot injury, with Phil Jagielka still not fit enough for a place in the squad. They join two more defensive long-term absentees Seamus Coleman and Ramiro Funes Mori on the sidelines as Ronald Koeman’s selection headache continues.

Koeman had five recognised defenders fit on Saturday and may opt for Mason Holgate to continue his makeshift role in the heart of the defence, alongside Ashley Williams.
Youngster Jonjoe Kenny may well be in line for a start at right back after he impressed coming off the bench against Bournemouth on the weekend, helping the Toffees turn around a 1-0 deficit in the process.
